government paid no attention to it. it has no impact on the policies of the clinton administration when it took office. if i was the american ambassador in china this confronted me with the problem of an american government with one view of china but china was moving in a different direction and that created some contradictions in trying to carry out my instructions faithfully. this time you have some echoes of that. clearly the fourth of july affair has exposed china's political system is not different from others. leaders struggle for power. they have their own ambitions. some succeed, some come crashing down as in the case of li. we should not just assume it is anatolian -- authoritarian system of government but what takes place in the political system is not taking place in china and this could partly explain why the announcement of party congress was delayed. no longer do you have an all-powerful leader behind-the-scenes who can put things in place but the powerful and ambitious leaders have to work out their own m
